The percentage of bogosity is nicely small, but there are a couple in
there which shouldn't be dropped.

The version in portage (scilab 4) works fine here; I've never gotten
scilab 5 (the version in sci) to build.

So that should remain.

Much worse, however, is this insanity:

> x11-misc/bbsload

So, you advocate removing x11 client packages because, oooh, they
require *server-side fonts*.  AIIIIGH!

Seriously, it is "bug"-reports 395353 and 402713 which are flawed, not
the packages.  And 429234, requesting stabilization, should get it.
